Nice course

Very nice course, water comes into play almost every hole with the except of a few. Shot placement is very important on the Red course. Conditions were wet so Carr path only. Played as a twosome. Parking fee. Drinks are very expensive. Great staff very helpful, some amenities closed.

The Courses

This was my 2nd time playing at Doral the last 2-3 months. I played Golden Palm in October, and loved it! I played Silver Fox today and loved it as well. Very challenging with water on 16 holes. Have to stay focused and get drives in play and good 2nd shots or scores will go up.

Play for Reputation

Nice course with challenging layout. Played it based on its reputation. Probably more interesting from a longer yardage. I played up a bit because of the rain and soggy conditions. Greens are gorgeous and well protected by traps. Wide open layout making it fairer for higher handicaps. Worth playing.

Enjoyable Track

Greens were fast and in good shape. Collars are mowed wide and tight, so expect lots of putts from the fringe, which I enjoyed. I never play the tips, but still really felt like I was experiencing the course -- Blue tees provided a perfect track for my game (210-230 carry off the tee and slight fade), which was super important given rain that morning and basically no roll in the fairway. Sand was well maintained, even on a Wednesday.

Trump Silver Fox

Challenging course in good condition. However, pace of play was terrible. We had very poor golfers in front with no sense of golf etiquette. They hacked their way repeatedly down the fairway until the green and their putting was awful! Compounding the situation is that there is no course ranger to enforce a reasonable pace of play. Due to this arrangement, we finished an hour and a half, yes that’s right, past the usual 4 and a half pace. I won’t be coming back for a while.

Target Golf

6 Par 5s 6 Par 4s 6 Par 3s. Some holes are a bit tricky. Wet conditions made for longer holes. Nice sized greens and true rolls. My playing partner got a hole in one which was fun!!

Course is short but requires precise shots and thinking. Greens are true and roll quick.

Target Golf

Lots of water requires accurate tee shots. Only disappointment was lack of amenities. Greens were smooth and true. Traps need quite a bit of work due to flooding. Overall a very nice track.

Trump Excellence

I played this course back in the 90s well before Trump purchased it. frankly back then it was pretty much a dump hanging onto it's past glory days. Trump has not only transformed the course and the conditions but completely transformed the facilities and it is nothing less than top-notch. The day we played the winds were howling but we still had a great time piece of play was excellent course was great, my buddy had the blue monster on his bucket list, it didn't disappoint he was thrilled with the experience. Covid was a little bit of a hamper not everything was open.

Poor drainage. Course was wet and for the money not worth it. No matter how nice the grounds of the clubhouse without any amenities offered it means nothing.

Great day at Doral

The course was in excellent shape, especially considering the amount of rain in the area the previous days. The staff was very accommodating. I came out as a single was paired with another single, we played 18 in 3 1/2 hours on a 9:30 tee time.
